2. A part of speech is a term used in traditional
grammar for one of the nine main
categories into which words are classified
according to their functions in sentences, such
as nouns or verbs. Also known as word classes,
these are the building blocks of grammar.

3. Learning the names of the parts of speech probably won't make you witty,
healthy, wealthy, or wise. In fact, learning just the names of the parts of speech
won't even make you a better writer. However, you will gain a basic
understanding of sentence structure and the English language by familiarizing
yourself with these labels.
It is important to recognize and identify the difference between different types of
words in English, so that one can understand grammar and use the right word
form in the right place.
WHY TO STUDY PART OF SEPEECH
4. OPEN AND CLOSED WORD CLASSES
The parts of speech are commonly divided into open classes (nouns, verbs, adjectives, and
adverbs) and closed classes (pronouns, prepositions, conjunctions, articles/determiners,
and interjections). The idea is that open classes can be altered and added to as language
develops and closed classes are pretty much set in stone. For example, new nouns are
created every day, but conjunctions never change.
In contemporary linguistics, the label part of speech has generally been discarded in favor
of the term word class or syntactic category. These terms make words easier to qualify
objectively based on word construction rather than context. Within word classes, there is
the lexical or open class and the function or closed class.
